Prince Harry’s inner circle has revealed that the Duke of Sussex has made a major decision regarding six-year-old Archie’s education—one that could draw him back to Britain and set up more potential encounters with Prince William.

Reports claim Harry has enrolled his son at Eton College, the prestigious boys’ boarding school attended by both him and William. The move would place Archie alongside William’s children in the years ahead, raising the possibility of renewed contact between the estranged brothers.

Following Family Tradition

Harry, 41, now based in Montecito, California with Meghan Markle and their two children, is said to be revisiting his old alma mater for Archie. He attended Eton between 1998 and 2003, a school founded by his ancestor King Henry VI and famed for producing royals, prime ministers, and influential leaders.

The school’s rigorous security and seven-day boarding structure are thought to make it particularly appealing for the Sussexes.

“For both William and Harry, Eton is really the only sensible choice when it comes to British schools because of security,” a former schoolmate told The Royalist, claiming Harry had already “registered” Archie. “There are so many high-profile and politically exposed kids there that the whole school has ridiculous security provisions already… so why shouldn’t Archie?”

Another friend added: “It’s fair to say he had mixed feelings about the school when he left, but looking back on it, he can appreciate the good.”
